If you follow me, don't expect that I will follow you back. I probably won't, unless you are turkey sandwich, John Sheppard or Jack O'Neill

I see we have reached the "harvesting the organs of the living" stage of capitalism.

@SandyofCthulhu How Tolkien described Arwen: "The braids of her dark hair were touched by no frost, her white arms and clear face were flawless and smooth, and the light of stars was in her bright eyes, grey as a cloudless night;..."
English
She was fine. She has kind of an odd face (yes it's attractive) which works for making her an elf. I always thought of Arwen as being blonde from the books. But that might be because there was a family in our church who named their blonde daughter "Arwen" (This was in the 1970s, so no one knew where the name came from.) But the non-blonde Arwen worked for me.

Perfect!!!!! But I read the books after the films so I might have a bias lol anyone that read th books before the films and what you thought of her?

Nosač zrakoplova 6. flote Ratne mornarice Sjedinjenih Američkih Država USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) uplovio je danas u splitski akvatorij.
Prethodno je @VladaRH odobrila uplovljavanje u unutarnje morske vode Republike Hrvatske i boravak u luci. Dolazak američkog nosača zrakoplova u Split odvija se u sklopu planiranog posjeta splitskoj luci i održavanja.
Uplovljavanje nosača zrakoplova u splitsku luku odraz je savezništva 🇭🇷 🤝 🇺🇸, našeg NATO saveznika i strateškog partnera.
ℹ️Nosač zrakoplova USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) prvi je put boravio u Republici Hrvatskoj u Splitu u lipnju 2023., a zadnji put u listopadu 2025. godine.

Sigh.
Bob, really?
The first few decades of programming was a vibrant time, filled with people who very much cared about discipline. Hopper, Dijkstra, Hoare, Yourdon, deMarco, Constantine, Bauer, Naur, McIlroy, Perlis, Gallar, Writh, Randell...the list goes on and on.
Stop spreading your usual bullshit.

Something nobody’s talking about:
Senior engineers have to review AI code. Cool. But how do junior and mid-levels become senior without years of writing code by hand?
Smashing the magic button and tossing the result to a senior engineer for review does not make you a senior

Amazon is holding a mandatory meeting about AI breaking its systems. The official framing is "part of normal business." The briefing note describes a trend of incidents with "high blast radius" caused by "Gen-AI assisted changes" for which "best practices and safeguards are not yet fully established." Translation to human language: we gave AI to engineers and things keep breaking? The response for now? Junior and mid-level engineers can no longer push AI-assisted code without a senior signing off. AWS spent 13 hours recovering after its own AI coding tool, asked to make some changes, decided instead to delete and recreate the environment (the software equivalent of fixing a leaky tap by knocking down the wall). Amazon called that an "extremely limited event" (the affected tool served customers in mainland China).

@AdamRackis There will be a severe shortage of senior engineers in the future. And I mean real senior engineers who actually know what they are doing.
But those riding the AI hype don't care much about the future. They just want quicker and cheaper results now.

“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

An open source calculator firmware system has declared it will not be available in California due to their new “Operating System age verification” law. Seriously. “The DB48X project intends to rebuild and improve the user experience of the HP48 family of calculators.” From the developer: “As a consequence of recent legislative activity in California and Colorado. DB48x is probably an operating system under these laws. However, it does not, cannot and will not implement age verification.” github.com/c3d/db48x/tree…

I am European socialist. Born and raised in a communist country and I know what values the left represents and I am as left as they get.
Many left politicians around the globe along with many of their supporters have collectively lost their marbles.
Extremely worrisome.

A walkable city is where you have cafes like this. A livable city is where the waiter also lives within walking distance of the cafe.
